Boy, there's a whole lot of "What the...?" going on in that single photo.

Interesting hat variety.

Before Harry S. Truman got into politics he was a partner in a haberdashery from 1919 - 1921. It was located in a hotel on the corner where the 4 finest hotels in KC were at that time. All the cattle buyers & sellers would stay there when they came to the stockyards once a wk. Location...location...location.
A young Harry Truman on the left.
Truman's partner, Eddie Jacobson was well connected. Truman met a lot of wealthy people as they came to the stockyards & other places on business. Jacobson & Tom Pendergast would urge Truman to enter local politics.
On a side note Jesse Edwards James, son of the outlaw Jesse Woodson James had a cigar stand in the lobby of the Jackson County Courthouse (no known pics exist). There he would met wealthy & otherwise influential men including the sons of some of his father's former enemies, who would eventually urge him to go to law school & become a lawyer. An effort was even made to form a movie production company to capitalize off his deceased father's notoriety. A total of 3 movies were made, all dismal failures. Location...location...location.

Trying to reach your acronym quota I see
It just makes no sense to me. If the brim is blocking your vision, why not just do what this genius did?Thanks Red. This one is older so does look a bit better than the current Tractor Supply versions. This visor style hat has been around since the 1930s.
